Produktinformationen zu „Experimental Philosophy, Rationalism, and Naturalism “
What larger philosophical questions does experimental philosophy raise? Do rationalism and naturalism share more than we think? In what way is philosophy a distinctive discipline in the human sciences? Distinguished contributors examine these questions and more, using examples and arguments from recent work in perception, the analytic-synthetic distinction, semantics and cognition.
Klappentext zu „Experimental Philosophy, Rationalism, and Naturalism “
Experimental philosophy is one of the most exciting and controversial philosophical movements today. This book explores how it is reshaping thought about philosophical method. Experimental philosophy imports experimental methods and findings from psychology into philosophy. These fresh resources can be used to develop and defend both armchair methods and naturalist approaches, on an empirical basis. This outstanding collection brings together leading proponents of this new meta-philosophical naturalism, from within and beyond experimental philosophy. They explore how the empirical study of philosophically relevant intuition and cognition transforms traditional philosophical approaches and facilitates fresh ones.Part One examines important uses of traditional "armchair" methods which are not threatened by experimental work and develops empirically informed accounts of such methods that can potentially stand up to experimental scrutiny. Part Two analyses different uses and rationales of experimental methods in several areas of philosophy and addresses the key methodological challenges to experimental philosophy: Do its experiments target the intuitions that matter in philosophy? And how can they support conclusions about the rights and wrongs of philosophical views?
Essential reading for students of experimental philosophy and metaphilosophy, Experimental Philosophy, Rationalism, and Naturalism will also interest students and researchers in related areas such as epistemology and the philosophies of language, perception, mind and action, science and psychology.

Pressezitat
'Just when it seemed like the metaphilosophical controversies about experimental philosophy were about to die down, this timely and valuable volume reminds us that many of the crucial questions are still unresolved.' - Joachim Horvath, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews 'A varied and balanced set of contributions on issues of central interest and importance. Sooner or later any philosopher is likely to face issues of philosophical method, and the essays gathered here would be very helpful in addressing them.' - Ernest Sosa, Rutgers University, USA
'Experimental philosophy has reinvigorated debates about the nature of intuitions and their role in philosophical inquiry, in particular, and about the relation between philosophy and empirical science, more generally. This excellent collection is essential reading for professional philosophers and graduate students who are interested in these issues.' - Matthew Haug, The College of William & Mary, USA
'A timely and original collection. Anyone interested in how philosophy can and should be done will want to read this book.' - John Turri, University of Waterloo, Canada
'This terrific book includes work from leading philosophers who represent a variety of methodological and metaphilosophical perspectives. It brings into conversation philosophers interested in the longstanding methodological debate between rationalists and naturalists with philosophers interested in the methodological implications of recent work in experimental philosophy. A must read for anyone interested in understanding the methodological implications of recent work in experimental philosophy!' - Joshua Alexander, Siena College, USA
